To support products manufactured by Bayer CropScience (BCS) intended for indoor application to structures, an observational study consistent with the Protections for Subjects in Human Research Rule was designed to determine the potential exposure to Pest Control Operators (PCOs) involved in various work functions associated with crack and crevice treatments.  This presentation will describe the need for the study, general experimental design, the processes used to identify and select the volunteers used in the study, and the analytical methodology developed for monitoring exposure.
